rsn Acres Enough.

Who has not read charming little
book with such rare rural flavor,
called "Ten Acres Enough" The
statement has been made and, so far
as we know, not contradicied by any
competent authority, that it is pure
romance, the author never having
lived in the country. Be that as it
may, the statement is sincontrovertible
that in this favored land OF the Semi
Tropics ten acres OF the right sort
Of land is enough. An acquaintance
Of ours, a whilom honest mechanic of
this city, lost his health to such a
degree that year ago he sold his lit
tie home in Los Angeles, and invested
the proceeds in twenty acres in the
foothills. Thither he removed his
f0res and penates, and became a
tiller Of the soil. The other day
some one came along and fancying
the little farm offered nearly twice
what it cost our friend who accepted
the money and once more made
himself homeless, In reply to
the query why he sold, he
responded. because twenty acres
ia too large parcel Of land for me to
ret the best results FROM" In am
pliflcation of this statement he went
on 10 say that one man cannot work
twsnty acres 10 tho best advantage,

our wines In Eurcpe.

1t has long been much desired that
market might be opened in Europe
for the surplus vintage of California.
Ours is not a great wine-consuming
people, and it will take many years
to educate the great majority OF
Americans to two truths-that light
wines are the best safeguards against
intemperance, and that these bever-
ages in moderation are more conduc-
i've to the mems sana IN corpore sdnO,
than is the drinking OF too much cof-
fee and tea. In time these facts will
impress themselves on the average
mind, and then all our wines sill find
a ready market at home. In the
meantime it is most desirable that an
outlet be found abroad for part OF the
products of our vineyards. The pur-
chase of Sunny Slope by English cap
italists will work 10 this good end.
The San Francisco Call of recent
date prints the following, which
points in the same hopeful direction
Ricardo Andre, the resident agent
OF two French wine merchants OF
Paris, has placed in the hands Of the
Viticultural Commission officials an
interesting report from his principals
concerning wine in bottles with Cal
ifornia labels shipped to them as
samples. The samples comprise
clarets, white wines and fortified
wines. The French report is very
satisfactory, and is especially favor
able to the clarets sent. 1t says that
$500, 900 gallons of rough, unclarified
wine could be eacily used yearly in
blending with French products. Last
October Mr.. Andre shipped 10000
gallons of average wines of the vim.
tage OF 1884 to his principals, o.
which they say that the wine has
aged greatly by the trip, so that i
might be dangerous to ship wine a
year older than the lot sent. Wines
of this class should not be over two
and a half years old at the time oi
shipment. Those containing IA per
cent. of alcohol did better than those
of only II per cent alcoholic strength.
The writer's say that the wines would
compete most favorably with the
petite Bordeaux wines sold in Paris
at high prices, and ask the California
winemakers to send full line oi
wine samples to be shown at the ex-
position in 1889. AS to liquor wines
they are reported good, but not able
to compete with the Spanish and
Portuguese, which are equally good
and cost less.
This year $4,000 gallons will be
sent, half to Antwerp and half to
Paris, aud local vinyardists expect
good results from the shipments, es-
pecially in Belgium. All this wine
will be sold as California, and under
California labels.
The testimony here borne to the
good quality OF our vintages is cer-
tainly very fiattering to the enterpris'
ing men who have founded the wine
industry OF California.

Rilleri bread.

Complaint is frequently made by thost
who use baking powders that they leave
in The bread, biscuit or cake raised by
them a dis5greeable, bitter taste. This
taste follows the use Of all impure bak.
ing powders. and is caused either by
their containing alum introduced to
make cheap article), by the impure
and adulterated character of other in.
gradients used, or from the ignorance OF
their manufacturers of the proper meth
DDS of combining them. These baking
powders leave in the bread residuum
formed of lime, earth, alum or other
deleterious matters not always, though
frequently tastable in the food, and BY
all physicians classed as injurious to
health. The Royal Baking Powder is
free from this serious defect. In its use
no residuum is left, and the loaf raised
by it is always sweet, light and. whole.
some, and noticeably free from the pecu.
liar taste complained of. The reason Of
this ia because ii is composed of nothing
but absolutely pure materials, scientif.
cally combined in exactly the proper
proportions of acid and alkai to act
upon and destroy each other, while pro-
ducing the largest amount Of rising
power. We are justified in this asser-
tion from the unqualified statements
made by the Government chemists, who
after thorough and exhaustive tests
recommended the Royal" for Govern.
mental use, because Of its superiority
over all others in purity. strength and
wholesomeness. There is no danger Of
bitter bread or biscuit where it alone Is
used.

Ourifttlc Boom.

For nearly a decade the OLD resi-
dents of this county have been max
ing haste very rapidly to get rid oil
their real estate. The newcomer has
snapped up the bargains right and
left, and in all cases grown rich out oil
the natural enhancement OF values IN
cident 10 the great growth OF popula-
ton. Experience even has failed to
teach the old-timer the Jolly OF such
course, and he is to day as eager
seIler as he was six or seven years
ago. At each point in the game he
has insisted that the time had come
10 call the turn. II has not come !
Gentlemen, it is not coming The
development OF the country has but
begun, and while fancy lands at $1,000
to $1,000 an acre may have less mar
gin to go on in the future than in the
past, taking the country as a whole,
rough and smooth, and the top round
of the ladder is still good way above
the head of the fellow who has
reached the highest point SO far.
There are two good reasons for this
view of the situation. In the first
place the influx of new population is
only begun. Next year will see
more people pressing in than last
year witnessed, and the succeeding
year will beat its predecessor for a
long time to come. During the past
year Eastern people invested large
amount Of money hereabouts. Each
one who leaves here $1,000 to $50 900
in the property of the country, be-
com es a very eloquent orator 10 sound
it's praises 10 his old neighbors. The
pc ople will continue 10 crowd in here
in force.
The second reason for our views
may be discovered in the indubitable
fact that the price of money must
find lower level within the next few
years. The railroad building going
ON at the moment is leaving a large
amount of money along the various
tracks it is taking through our terri
tory. Then the great ranches are
being sold and subdivided. The old
tim er gets half million dollars for
his princely domain. He must find
some source from which this sum shall
earn a revenue. The new comers
who buy this one out and subdivide the
principality pocket four or five times
fhe amount. This money also must
be put out on usufruct somewhere.
1t is potent fact that the cheapen-
ing of money enhances the value OF
property of all classes. The eastern
man who has seen Wisconsin, Min
nesota and Michigan fill with people /;
who has seen Chicago, Kansas City,
Detroit and Denver grow up as rap
idly as Jonah's gourd, yet permanent
is Rome on her seven hills will see
these facts as plain as daylight. But
the pioneer will probably go on in
his old way, selling his lands for
song, and seeing the man who came
here yesterday grow rich by his
foresighted and enlightened policy
Los Angeles daily herald., 1887-05-03

unless he hires good deal OF labor
done. Good labor is scarce and dear
in this part of the world. With less
ground man can plant closer, culti-
yate more thoroughly, keep his land
in good body by ferGlizing, and thus,
with half the capital invested, with
no labor to pay for, and with less ex-
ertion and toll on his own part, the
faumer can get about as large returns
as for the larger area. There is no
doubt there is sound philosophy in
this view. At any rate, ten acres in
this valley is sufficient to support a
family we'll.

The matter is one of the very greatest
Importance, and should have the
counsel and backing oil every business

factories Of various sorts. There can
be no doubt that the opening for such
enterprises exists here. Probably. nc
